I will try the full path now. However, I did su - backuppc account on
backup server and noted 'at' was in the path. I will give the full
path a try now.

Actually, auth.sh and rsyncd.conf/rsync.secrets was configured
correctly. I went over that again and again. User mentioned in
rsyncd.conf was configured in rsync.secrets in user:pw format.  I must
mention, the windows client installer,  though it asked for
username/password, installer didn't put anything in rsync.secrets and
rsyncd.conf which I realized some time after installation(but before
posting here) and winxp was rebooted after those files were modified.

What made the dump working for me was below two additional settings,
$Conf{RsyncdPasswd} = 'Ba....';
$Conf{RsyncdUserName} = 'backuppc';

backuppc is the user I have in rsynced.conf/rsync.secrets/auth.sh and
in windowsxp's backup configuration file (.pl) where the above two
parameters are configured.

I didn't see any mention of this step on the blog. I hope the two
parameters configured above are part of the process. If not then
something isn't working the way it should.
